Group Description
Connect with travelers with disabilities and welcoming locals, offering tips on accessible hotels, wheelchair-friendly attractions, and transportation in Japan. From Tokyo’s bustling Shibuya Crossing and historic Asakusa to Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji, Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, and the hot springs of Hakone, whether it’s your first visit or a return trip, this is the place to ask about accommodations, getting around, or inclusive activities – someone here has likely experienced it before. You’ll find personal stories, travel tips, and recommendations for cultural, historical, and nature experiences. This group supports mobility aid users, along with travelers who have sensory sensitivities, low vision, and hearing loss, helping you enjoy a more accessible Japan adventure.
Reply To: Need electric mobility scooter for my dad.
As @tak mentioned, the max weight of the taxi is 250kg
The Whill Model-R that @pao suggested weighs about 57kg.
Your dad’s weight in kg is 136kg, so 136kg + 57kg is 193kg and should be ok.
The only thing is they are a bit expensive.
I know a rental place.
